I don’t think I’ve done a Ten on Tuesday in a really, really long time. It is Tuesday, right? Last week had me all messed up with the holiday on Monday and I actually posted my “mine on monday” post on Tuesday thinking it was Monday. So….
1. I stayed up until 2am working on re-doing my blog! I have this habit of waiting until 10 at night to start on crazy big projects that take me hours to get everything just the way I want it. I probably need to work on changing that but I’ve always been a night owl. I should say I was a night owl until I had Jack – and then I became a day owl. I think I’m slowly getting back into the night owl routine lately though.
2. Check out the new Facebook and Twitter bars over to the left! You can click on the FB link and become a fan and keep up with sneak peeks from sessions there. My Twitter musings are mostly random thoughts during the day or wee hours of the morning. I’m not holding myself responsible for spelling in the wee hours though.
3. I wake up every morning feeling completely blessed that I love my job. I was able to resign from my full time job in November to pursue my photography business full time and I have loved every minute of the past two months. It was a huge leap of faith for me and one that I was really, really nervous about doing but I am so thankful to be working in a job I truly love.
4. Sudafed Triple Action is the best thing since sliced bread. My ears have stopped up with fluid for months now and nothing has worked until now. My ear drums are popping and I can finally hear! My husband is glad I don’t have to listen to the TV on full volume and blast out the windows.
5. Things I am loving right now: my Keurig coffee maker. Oh so fast. I don’t have to fuss with filters, coffee, etc. Just pop in a little cup, wait about 20 seconds and DONE. A new pair of Lucky jeans that fit just right. Complete heaven. My newest lens – a 50mm that hasn’t left my camera yet and I doubt will anytime soon!
6. I confess that while I’m home during the day working I get sucked into the Lifetime Movie Network. Or Bridezilla’s. Or 48 Hours Mysteries. Or something totally off the wall like Bad Girls. ?? Bad Girls? They really have a show where women act like complete fools? Yep, they do!! I’ve found that there isn’t much to choose from during the day. I don’t have the patience for soap opera’s – things just move way too slow! I like to watch something with a beginning, middle, and end – not drawn out every day with storylines not being resolved from months on end. I tried picking Days of our Lives back up and I’ll watch it once every other week or so but that’s all I can take. Sidenote: EJ – give Sammi’s baby back to her!!
7. I really enjoy sitting down and planning out my menu’s for the week and it got even better when I got the Pioneer Woman’s Cookbook! It’s not a calorie-light way of cooking – but it’s a yummy way. My favorite recipe so far has been the meatloaf. It has bacon wrapped across the top. Need I even say more?
8. Jack had a dentist appointment yesterday morning and we finally got the Xrays done. Finally! He has such a bad gag reflex and up until now (when he’s starting to outgrow it) he’s not been able to keep the bite thingies in his mouth without gagging and choking himself. Yesterday he climbed up in the Xray chair and just had that determined look on his face and he got through all of them. No gagging! I was so, so proud of him. He got a No Cavities sticker and we were on our way!
9. I’m kicking around buying the Wii fit and canceling my gym membership that I only use here and there anyway. Anyone have one of the workout programs that they love? I wish I could go back to running but my knee will just not hold out for it. Even after 6 years I still miss it.
10. Hmmm, breakfast time??
And because no post should be without images – here’s a sweet little newborn!
